Skoda Kushaq has a spare parts warranty policy of up to 2 years, longer than the common 1 year of many competitors in the market. Spare parts are imported from Europe, with prices publicly available at the company's Experience Centers, helping customers easily look up and plan costs. This helps reduce concerns about the supply of components for European cars manufactured in Vietnam.

Regarding maintenance, the Kushaq's recommended maintenance schedule is 7,500 km or 1 year (whichever comes first), which is more generous than the 5,000 km or 6 months interval commonly found in Japanese and Korean models. Kushaq's maintenance costs are lower than those of European models in the same segment as Peugeot or Volkswagen, helping to balance quality and affordability. In fact, according to the company, the total Skoda maintenance cost at the 60,000 km mark (equivalent to a family car used for 6 years) is only about 24 million VND, which is not higher than that of Japanese and Korean cars.

With SAE 0W-20 viscosity, this oil helps reduce friction and support engine performance. In the Vietnamese market, this standard is equivalent to the oil used on Audi models, while locally distributed Volkswagen cars often use SAE 0W-30 with VW 504 00 standard.
